The Boger Swing - WWII's Most BRUTAL Torture Method?

Throughout the Second World War inside the concentration camps there were many evil SS guards who tortured prisoners. One of them, Wilhelm Boger who became known as 'The Tiger Of Auschwitz,' invented his own torture device known as the 'Boger Swing.' A prisoner was strapped to a rod which was swung back and forth and they were then beaten very badly. This was known as one of the worst torture methods of the camps.

And people still ask why the camp guards were shot after the prisoners were freed.

I had a teacher when i was in 5th grade in Baltimore Maryland...I was just starting to really dig into WW2 history, and one day she was handing out our test for the week..I noticed the strange numbers tattooed on her left lower forearm...I quietly asked her what they were?...She said do you know about the concentration camps?...Now in the late 1970's there was a mimi series called The Holocaust shown on national television, which my parents made me watch...So i did know a little bit about the camps..She was a survivor of Auschwitz!...The next week she did a whole week about the Nazis and their Final Solution...I can not believe what one human can do to another human for political or financial gain??.It humbled me to know what the Jews in WW2 went thru because of their religion....I will never forget what she told our class about the lifes of her whole family and many others who lived in that situation...Let us never forget what happened to those individuals, and never let it happen again...

I still can't wrap my head around, how humans can inflict so much suffering, willingly and by their own hands. This is way beyond disgusting. How could they sleep? How could they eat? How could they look in the mirror? They heard their victim's cries, they saw their faces and their wounds, they smelled their blood and feces. How can you ever calm down after doing this? I mean, you need empathy to invent torture. It's beyond my understanding. May they rot in hell. May their victims rest in peace.

At 3:14 or so is illustrated the "Parrot's Perch", something different to the Boger Swing, and initially developed elsewhere, probably South American in origin.

Any one calling for gun control had better look at this

What we should have learned from WW2, but didn't, is that ANYBODY can be conditioned to act like that.

His punishment was far, far too lenient.
